A delicious and fresh Chicken Caprese Sandwich featuring grilled chicken breast, ripe tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, basil leaves, and a balsamic glaze on toasted ciabatta bread.

Ingredients

Scale

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, about 6 ounces each
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
4 slices ciabatta bread
4 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
1 medium ripe tomato, sliced
8 fresh basil leaves
2 tablespoons balsamic glaze
1 tablespoon mayonnaise

Instructions

Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium-high heat.
Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Grill the chicken breasts for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes.
While the chicken rests, lightly toast the ciabatta bread slices until golden brown.
Spread 1/2 tablespoon mayonnaise on each slice of toasted bread.
Slice the grilled chicken breasts into thin strips.
On two slices of the bread, layer the sliced chicken evenly.
Top the chicken with slices of fresh mozzarella cheese, then add the tomato slices.
Place four fresh basil leaves over the tomato slices.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon balsamic glaze evenly over each sandwich.
Top each sandwich with the remaining bread slices to close.
Cut sandwiches in half if desired and serve immediately.
